Answer:

ΔSmix,m = 5.7628 J/K.mol

Explanation:

mix: A + B

∴ nA = x mol A

∴ nB = y mol B

⇒ n mix = x + y = 1 mol

∴ P total = 1 bar

∴ T: constant

entropy of gases when mixing:

  • ΔSmix = - nA*R*LnXA - nB*R*LnXB

∴ XA = x/1 = x

∴ XB = y/1 = y

⇒ ΔSmix = - x*R*Lnx - y*R*Lny

assuming: x = y = 0.5 mol

⇒ ΔSmix = - (0.5)(R)(- 0.693) - (0.5)(R)(- 0.693)

⇒ ΔSmix = (0.3465)(R) + (0.3465)(R)

⇒ ΔSmix = (0.6931)(R)

∴ R = 8.314 J/K.mol

⇒ ΔSmix,m = (0.6931)(8.314 J/K.mol)

⇒ ΔSmix,m = 5.7628 J/K.mol

Explain why you cannot just take away a proton to make a halogen negative.​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The force that holds protons and neutrons together is too strong to overcome.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Consider the location of the particles in an atom.

  • Electrons are found outside the nucleus.
  • Protons and neutrons are found within the nucleus.

Protons carry positive charges and repel each other. The nucleus will break apart without the strong force that holds the protons and neutrons together. This force is much stronger than the attraction between the nucleus and the electrons. X-rays are energetic enough for removing electrons from an atom. However, you'll need a collider to remove protons from a stable nucleus. You could well have ionized the atom with all that energy.

Also, changing the number of protons per nucleus will convert the halogen atom to an atom of a different element. Rather than making the halogen negative, removing a proton will convert the halogen atom to the negative ion of a different element.

Many different parts of the brain work together to encode, store, and retrieve information as needed. The diagram below indicate
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Are memories stored in just one part of the brain, or are they stored in many different parts of the brain? Karl Lashley began exploring this problem, about 100 years ago, by making lesions in the brains of animals such as rats and monkeys. He was searching for evidence of the engram: the group of neurons that serve as the “physical representation of memory” (Josselyn, 2010). First, Lashley (1950) trained rats to find their way through a maze. Then, he used the tools available at the time—in this case a soldering iron—to create lesions in the rats’ brains, specifically in the cerebral cortex. He did this because he was trying to erase the engram, or the original memory trace that the rats had of the maze.

Lashley did not find evidence of the engram, and the rats were still able to find their way through the maze, regardless of the size or location of the lesion. Based on his creation of lesions and the animals’ reaction, he formulated the equipotentiality hypothesis: if part of one area of the brain involved in memory is damaged, another part of the same area can take over that memory function (Lashley, 1950). Although Lashley’s early work did not confirm the existence of the engram, modern psychologists are making progress locating it. Eric Kandel, for example, spent decades working on the synapse, the basic structure of the brain, and its role in controlling the flow of information through neural circuits needed to store memories (Mayford, Siegelbaum, & Kandel, 2012).

Many scientists believe that the entire brain is involved with memory. However, since Lashley’s research, other scientists have been able to look more closely at the brain and memory. They have argued that memory is located in specific parts of the brain, and specific neurons can be recognized for their involvement in forming memories. The main parts of the brain involved with memory are the amygdala, the hippocampus, the cerebellum, and the prefrontal cortex
